 The WWE is looking to restrict the number of promotions that
their United Kingdom talent will be allowed to wrestle in. At a recent set of
tapings talent was given new contracts that all came with pay raises. Talent can
only wrestle under WWE and WWE’s partner groups, which include PROGRESS, ICW,
Fight Club Pro, Futureshock, Over the Top Wrestling and wXw. None of the matches
can be televised for obvious reasons. They are also not allowed to wrestle
against talent contracted to promotions like Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro
Wrestling, World of Sport or any other promotion that WWE considers to be a
major one. And if there isn’t a paramedic at the shows talent cannot work. WWE
has also just opened the United Kingdom Performance Center. The facility is
17,000 square feet and has all the services the Florida based Performance Center
has. Paul "Triple H" Levesque says the new Performance Center is the first of
what will be many outside of the U.S. |
